More and more the Southern Poverty Law Center is seen to be operating as another arm of the Democratic party. They are throwing out labels like white supremacist at just about everyone that questions the 2020 election or opposes the currently installed administration.

A quick search of their internet site for Antifa pulls up an article with a headline that says “Designating Antifa as Domestic Terrorist Organization Is Dangerous, Threatens Civil Liberties.” But I guess Antifa itself doesn’t threaten civil liberties? They also make it a point to mention BLM is a positive way:

It is important to acknowledge the moment we are in and the incredible efforts of groups such as the Movement for Black Lives and the power of protest, despite the militarization of our police departments nationally

I think they are missing a pretty big part of the picture if they chop off half of the political spectrum and pretend that everything on the left is goodness and light.

They point out that someone has actually registered a Stop the Steal LLC in Alabama, as if that is in itself an act of hate. I don’t know much about this guy Ali Alexander that put it together, and I don’t endorse him in any way. But jumping on the message of questioning the election as hate is a bit far fetched.

In reality, the SPLC is just a scam to make money off of the fears of others. One of its staffers, Bob Moser, quit a couple of years ago and blew the whistle on the operation:

Working in a building that “made social justice ‘look despotic,’” the earnest young leftist quickly learned that fighting hate involved a lot of hypocrisy and a lot more money.

Of the hypocrisy, Moser wrote, blacks at SPLC were almost uniformly “administrative and support staff — ‘the help,’ one of my black colleagues said pointedly.” But the “‘professional staff’ — the lawyers, researchers, educators, public-relations officers, and fund-raisers — were almost exclusively white. Just two staffers, including me, were openly gay.”

Of the money-making, Moser quotes another of Dees’s critics, who says Dees viewed “civil-rights work mainly as a marketing tool for bilking gullible Northern liberals.”

For some reason the left still holds this group up as some sort of a hate tracking organization with integrity. They are really just an outlet for rich liberals to pour money into to make themselves feel better, and support the Democratic party.
